Zionist newspaper Maariv: “Tel Aviv is melting”

Maariv acknowledged that early this morning, Iran’s armed forces launched around 40 missiles targeting vast areas of the occupied territories. The paper admitted that powerful explosions were heard across Tel Aviv, and thick smoke and flames engulfed large parts of the city.

In addition to hitting multiple areas across Tel Aviv, the strikes caused massive destruction in the Ness Ziona area south of the city, inflicting heavy damage.

Despite strict media censorship by Israeli authorities, Maariv reported that at least 18 Israelis have been injured in this wave of Iranian missile attacks. Moreover, due to widespread destruction of buildings, many Israelis have either gone missing or remain trapped under rubble.

Given the ongoing censorship, the paper suggested that the number of casualties and injuries is likely to rise in the coming hours.
